Roster Notes
- Hate Shea Hillenbrand? So does Sports Illustrated writer Larry Dobrow, who says it's time for him to find another line of work:
He lacks power. He lacks patience. He's clumsy in the field and a manager-baiting pain in the ass in the clubhouse. He's the roster equivalent of a cold sore.
Ooh, man, don't talk about viral infections. Casey Kotchman's still on the 25-man roster... - Justin Speier threw a simulated game Friday in extended spring training. He will throw another on Monday, and will rejoin the Angels on Tuesday for evaluation.
- Is Kelvim Escobar thinking of Bartolo Colon?
"I know for sure I can be a Cy Young [winner]," Escobar said. "When I see the guys that have won the Cy Young, there's no doubt.
- Jason Repko is making progress in rehab, taking swings off a tee, and doing some light throwing (90 feet).
- Wilson Valdez cleared waivers and has accepted an assignment to AAA Las Vegas.
- Jason Schmidt came down with the flu and missed his simulated game assignment. Presumably there will be a makeup exam.
- Jack Cust is now 0 for his last four games following the A's 8-3 flogging at the hands of Baltimore, driving his average down to .246. Eric Chavez, who missed three straight games with triceps tendinitis, started at third in tonight's game and went 0-for-4. As the Rev points out, Oakland is now in 3rd place in the AL West.
- Huston Street is eligible to come off the DL tomorrow but has yet to throw a pitch.
- Felix Hernandez was removed in the sixth from his Friday night start due to a back strain. He's expected to make his next start against the Angels on Wednesday.
